1965 Map of Twin Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Twin Buttes rises as the primary landmark in this remote section of Garfield County, where the topography is defined by the winding drainages of Middle Fork Lodgepole Creek and Haislett Creek. The 1960s landscape shows a sparse pattern of high plains ranching and rural infrastructure, anchored by the Meckel Sch and the small settlement at Cairo. Numerous coulees, such as Bobcat Coulee, Meckel Coulee, and Dugout Coulee, carve through the terrain, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the eastern Montana breaks. Fine red dashed lines throughout the map delineate selected fence lines, providing a rare look at property boundaries and land use in this open range country during the mid-century era.
